Do you wear black socks for tennis?

[killer]

From time to time i like to break them out...makes me feel just a little rebellious, and just a little bit dorky too...how about you?

[Rickson]

All the time, but nobody freaks because I have on nylon sweatpants instead of shorts.

[yourserve]

i also wear black and blue socks with my blue new balance 544. i never wear
dark colors with white shoes. when you play as bad as i do, you have to
at least try to look cool.

I've used black sox once or twice and regretted it each time; your toes get black!

[Mr.Federer]

White are way better, looks better too...but yeah, sometimes(rarely) I'll put some black socks on.

[Aykhan Mammadov]

I wear them very often simply because I wear Nike BLACK shoes. They look great with black shoes. But with white shoes it is wrong, of course.

Black socks just scream "im hardcoreeeeeeeeeeeeee"

[Dan007]

I've never worn black socks before. I might get a pair of nike black socks if I get black tennis shoes to match with it.

[ReturnAce]

honestly depends. In the fall/winter, when I'm playing indoors, usually black. Rest of the time it's white.

Fashion? Since when have tennis players had a good fashion sense?

[Barricade_steve]

I always wear black socks when i play tennis. I wear my black adidas crew socks with my black or navy blue barricade 3's. OOOOoHHH thats hard.

[goober]

I never wear black socks. Of course I don't have any black tennis shoes. I do have Silver Yonex and some gray adidas B2s but I still wear white socks with them.

[fishuuuuu]

They're awesome with BIV.

In an old Sports Illustrated, a college basketball coach had to assemble a team under duress and a very tight deadline. The question put to him was "How did you make your personnel decisions so quickly?"

His answer: "The first thing I did was cut the guys wearing black socks."

'Nuff said.

always white socks

I wear black socks in the gym, and I would wear them on the tennis court if I could ever find Thor Lo tennis socks or another tennis sock of similar thickness and comfort.

[Tchocky]

I bought a pair of Nike Dri-Fit black socks because they were on sale. They were kind of tight (fit wise). I don't think they're worth $8.00 retail. I kind of like them because it's something different. Anything you can do to distract your opponent...you should.

ill only wear long black socks during winter cuz its FREAKING COLD

[Kevin T]

Phil,

Look for SmartWools. Best socks ever, IMHO. You can get those bad boys in black, blue, red, yellow, white, gray, whatever. I know you have played squash and rball and those sports produce more blisters on my feet than tennis ever has. No blisters since I switched to SmartWool 2 years ago. Good cushioning and moisture transfer, as well. Now hit those weights!!
